So I was driving my car today outside of philly and all of the sudden I felt something "blow" and the car began to run mega shitty. I pulled off to the side anticipating the worst...thought maybe I had a blown HG. Fortunately it was a loose spark plug wire and to my astonishment a missing spark plug. Luckily I found that the plug had lodged itself in the headers and I was able to screw it back in temporarily and get home.
Now onto to the problem. I'm pretty sure the threaded part where this particular spark plug went is stripped. I've looked into getting the helicoil kit but I need a temporary fix that'll work until I get to that because the car has become my daily. Could I use something like silicon to hold it in place as a temporary fix?
Has anyone experienced this before?
